Appearance-making of non-true existents

Redirected from
Appearances of non-true existents

As used by the Nyingma master Mipam, the aspect of a limited being's sensory or mental non-conceptual mental activity that gives rise to a mental hologram of a moment of sensibilia, such as colored patches in visual cognition or the sound of a consonant and vowel in audio cognition, and which does not determine it as being a truly existent "this" or "that" commonsense object, in the sense in which Madhyamaka defines truly established existence.
